hand the academy should not do the
work Of the college, and on the other
the college should not attempt TO do
the work Of the academy.
Hon. j. Taylor Ellyson, correspond
ing secretary Of the Education Board,
argued that, while the "laymen's
movement" is OF great importance and
had his warmest sympathy, yet, after
all, the great need OF the denomina-
ton and CT the world is an educated,
devoted, and self-denying ministry.
He made clear statement of the work
Of the board and an earnest and effect
i've plea for larger contributions for
this object.
Professor G.. l.. Cooke, of Hollins
Institute, being called ont, said that he
would not speak for his school, as for
forty five years it had been sending out
educated women who speak for it. He
made. however, an eloquent plea for
female education.
Rev. W. j. Decker read an admira-
BILE report ON home missions, which
bristled with facts and figures concern
ing the work OF the 25l missionaries Of
the Home Mission Board of the South
ern Baptist Convention.
DIR. j. William Jones, assistant cor
responding secretary OF the Home Mis-
sion Board, took the report for his text
and made a plea for the sympathies,
prayers, and contributions Of the
churches for the board he repre-
scented.
At II o'clock Rev. l.. J. Haley
preached at the stand to very large
congregation, and was followed by Rev.
Henry l.. Quarles. Your correspond
ent remained IN the house and did not
hear the sermons at the stand, but
learned that they were both very fne
sermons.
At II o'clock Rev. DR.. Landrum
preached in the house a sermon of great
power on Obedience, the True Test
Of Love to Christ" The congregation
seemed to be deeply moved by the SER
mon.
In the afternoon the condition of
the churches was presented in an adj
mirable report by Rev. T.. ". Winfree,
and brief talks by delegates from the
different churches. Some of the
speeches were very spicy, and the gene
raj condition of the churches seemed
to be good and the outlook for the
future hopeful.
The rain broke up the congregation
at the stand just AS Rev. j. NJ. Pitcher
was about to speak.
The association will adjourn to-mor-
row. LANGLEY.

Matters.
Correspondence Of the Richmond Dspatch.l
SEPTEMBER Z, 1897
One of the best signs of the times for
Danvile is the unanimity with which
her people have decided to have to-
baccO fair. One of the greatest draw
backs to public enterprise here is the
lack Of cooperation ON the part of bust
ness-men, but in the present instance
the citizens have come together with a
vim and determination which assures
the success OF the fair
No better time could have been Sc
lecled. For several years past the to-
baccO crop has been almost failure.
but this year the seasons have been
highly favorable to the crop. and the
vCailcr now is ali that could be de
sired. Unless something occurs during
the present month to damage the crop
We viii see one OF the finest crops ever
raised in this section. 4 fine crop
mems high prices to the farmer and
better times for the business of Dan
Vile. The fair will attract a large
number Of buyers and planters, and
there can be no question OF the great
benefit Danyllle viii derive from the
fair.
1t has not vet been determined as to
whom our people VIII select TO repre-
sent them in the Legislature. Hitherto
the county people have conceded one
delegate to Danville. though they de-
maud, Of course, that the man Danyiile
puts mp shall be acceptable to them.
Ia making a selection, therefore, we
have 10 keep an eye on the county
people and be careful not to choose Il
man objectionable to them. There are
plenty OF men here who would fill the
lin, but they are the men who can't
afford to go. They are too busy to
leave home and cannot be induced TO
serve.
Moses Price was today convicted OF

senatorial Convention.
Correspondence Of the Richmond Dlspatch.I
HAMPTON, Va, Sept. 7, 1897.
The Republican senatorial convention
for this district met in the court
house at II A. NJ. yesterday, and after
ten hours session L. NJ Nance, of
Charles City county, was nominated
last night. There was considerable
confusion in the meeting, and on the
vote being announced much dissatis-
faction was expressed. A vote to make
the nomination unanimous met with a
stoIm of noes. DR.. ID. NJ. Norton
(colored) was in the lead on the first
ballots, but withdrew before the final
vote was announced. There seemed
the bitterest opposition to him on the
part of many delegates. At the con-
clusion of this session the convention
met TO select a candidate for the lower
house, and John II. Robinson (colored),
of Elizabeth City county, was chosen.
